When I was a kid, I didn’t want a dog like so many of my friends.
Mostly because we already had one.
What I wanted was a monkey.
This was not a passing phase.
I adored that Every Which Way But Loose movie.
I was obsessed with the work of Jane Goodall.
I had a million stuffed monkeys.
And I can still make a monkey sound that would win competitions if they held monkey sound competitions.
My childhood longing for a monkey would only be equaled one day by my teenage desire for a Suzuki Jeep.
I never got either which is so sad. Especially because can you imagine how damn cool I would have been driving around in my Suzuki Jeep with a monkey in the passenger seat?! Do monkeys wear seat belts? I don’t know! If only my parents had loved me more and bought me the things I really needed, I would know important stuff like that.
So when Samsung asked me if I would show a video that featured monkeys and their new refrigerator, it was like the universe was speaking directly to me. I love monkeys. I have a healthy respect for refrigerators. How could I say no? So here it is…
To recap the video,
That looks like a really nice fridge.
That house has the worst security system ever.
And by the way, now that I basically have 4 monkeys and one more on the way, I no longer desire one of these primates. So seriously don’t send me one.

Fabulous little ad. So I take it you had MJ envy over Bubbles. I know I did. I have 2 monkeys myself but thanks to that promo, have an unnatural desire for a primate. Do Samsung stock them?
WHahahaha We have a monkey infestation in SA, so hopefully they don’t promote that video here. I can imagine the picketing.
I’m happy to know that you aren’t madly in love with a Suzuki Jeep any longer, because I would definitely have sent you one!!! (In that cool teal green color) It would be tough because Suzuki is no longer in business here. Enjoy your monkeys!
That video is so funny. Monkeys have funny accents
Alan! Don’t forget the coriander!
That is hilarious. My Mom’s brother had a monkey for a while when she was growing up. It would take its tail and hit her with it. She DID NOT like the monkey.
I think most adolescent monkey love is repressed yearning a to procreate. Kids sure do cure that!
Never wanted a monkey, can share in the yearning for a Suzuki jeep, and sure I’ll take a new fridge. Think I can get my landlord right on that?
My mom had a monkey as a pet when she was growing up in Colombia
I don’t know about the easy in/ easy out. Sounds a little dirty for a fridge!
that is a very nice monkey. please don’t give him my address.
